[pointer-finger symbol] In consequence of the great and unprecedented demand for places, the Box-keeper most respectfully requests that those Ladies and Gentlemen honouring him with their commands, will be specific in the number, to prevent disappointment in the Theatre; and also to observe that places cannot possibly be kept after half past seven.
ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE, (Astley’s) Westminster-bridge.
THIS EVENING (Saturday, April 15), HORSEMANSHIP, by twelve celebrated Equestrians.—An entirely new splendid Serio Comic Equestrian Pantomime, with extraordinary and extensive new platforms and Nouvelle preparations, called The LIFE, DEATH, and RESTORATION of the HIGH METTLED RACER; or, Harlequin on Horseback. Founded on a most deservedly celebrated Ballad, in which the interesting Stages in the lie of that truly valuable animal, and Horse, were with so much feeling and propriety pourtrayed [sic] by the lamented and unequalled British Lyric, Mr. Charles Dibdin, sen. In the course of 21 interesting scenes will be introduced a real Horse Race, and real Fox Chace. The Pantomime written by Mr. T. Dibdin, and produced under the direction of Mr. Davis. A new song called the Pig faced Lady, by Mr. Jones, to conclude with a new Scotch Melo-drama, called SIGISMORN, and the DANISH CHIEFTAIN.—Second price half past eight.
